Provincial Education Minister Murad Rass has announced that education has already been severely damaged by the Corona epidemic this year, so there will be no winter holidays in the province's schools.
He said that this year there will be no holidays due to smog. The government has decided to introduce Insaf Academies from where students will be able to sit at home and take lectures and take tests. He said that there are several private academies in the province. She is working but she is charging heavy fees. She has received many reports that teachers have instructed parents to enroll their children in these private academies to complete the curriculum.
Punjab Education Minister Dr Murad Rass said in a statement that the Insaf Academy would be set up within the next six months, under which students would be given online lectures, while the move would increase fees for parents. The burden will be removed, as children will now be able to take online lectures at home.
